Communities In Schools

Communites In Schools (CIS) places student support specialists in all five schools on the Sea Islands. These specialists provide the social and emotional skills instruction necessary for students to become resilient and successful. Their work provides astonishing results, despite dealing with under-resourced children at high risk for school failure. At the end of the 2014 – 2015 year, 96 precent (904) of CIS case-managed students (excluding seniors) were promoted to the next grade level and 98 percent (140) of seniors graduated.
